If you don't treat a UTI quickly it can very easily travel back up to the kidneys and cause a kidney infection, and those are NASTY and can land you in the hospital. Blood in the urine is a sure sign that your UTI has turned nasty and probably won't be leaving camp anytime soon without some antibiotics. As for the pain right now, get some AZO- it's sold at any pharmacy and it's usually next to the yeast infection creams. It numbs the bladder (and turns your pee orange) and helps you deal with the pain- but it is VERY IMPORTANT to get the UTI itself treated quickly.

Kidney infections = nasty!
